Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A method comprising: selecting, by a mobile device, a file stored on a computing device that is separate from the mobile device; and providing, by the mobile device, the selected file stored on the computing device to a display device that is separate from the computing device and from the mobile device, to depict the selected file stored on the computing device, including submitting, by the mobile device, one or more commands to the computing device to cause the computing device to transmit the selected file to the display device for display, where there is no requirement that the display device and the computing device be in proximity of each other, that the display device and the mobile device be in proximity of each other, or that the computing device and the mobile device be in proximity of each other.

2

2. The method of claim 1 where the file is part of a collection of files that is stored on the computing device.

3

3. The method of claim 2 where the collection stored on the computing device is configured for being browsed via the mobile device.

4

4. The method of claim 1 where a size of the file was scaled by the computing device prior to the information from the file being depicted by the display device.

5

5. The method of claim 1 where a quality of the file was scaled by the computing device prior to the information from the file being depicted by the display device.

6

6. The method of claim 1 further comprising presenting, by the display device under control of the mobile device, an annotation of the file.

7

7. The method of claim 6 where the annotation is a text or voice annotation that was created and associated with the file via the mobile device.

8

8. A system comprising: a mobile device configured to select a file stored on a computing device that is separate from the mobile device, where the mobile device is further configured to provide the selected file on the computing device to a display device that is separate from the computing device and the mobile device, to depict the selected file stored on the computing device, including the mobile device submitting one or more commands to the computing device to computing device to transmit the selected file to the display device for display, where there is no requirement that the display device and the computing device be in proximity of each other, that the display device and the mobile device be in proximity of each other, or that the computing device and the mobile device be in proximity of each other.

9

9. The system of claim 8 where the file is part of a collection of files that is stored on the computing device.

10

10. The system of claim 9 where the collection stored on the computing device is configured for being browsed via the mobile device.

11

11. The system of claim 8 where a size of the file was scaled by the computing device prior the information from the file being depicted by the display device.

12

12. The system of claim 8 where a quality of the file was scaled by the computing device prior to the information from the file being depicted by the display device.

13

13. The system of claim 8 , the display device further configured to present, under control of the mobile device, an annotation of the file.

14

14. The system of claim 13 where the annotation is a text or voice annotation that was created and associated with the file via the mobile device.

15

15. A mobile device comprising: memory that comprises computer-executable instructions that, based on execution by the mobile device, cause the mobile device to: select a file stored on a computing device that is separate from the mobile device; provide the selected file stored on the computing device to a display device that is separate from the computing device and from the mobile device to depict the selected file stored on the computing device, including the mobile device submitting one or more commands to the computing device to cause the computing device to transmit the selected file to the display device for display, where there is no requirement that the display device and the computing device be in proximity of each other, that the display device and the mobile device be in proximity of each other, or that the computing device and the mobile device be in proximity of each other.

16

16. The mobile device of claim 15 where the file is part of a collection of files that is stored on the computing device.

17

17. The mobile device of claim 16 where the collection stored on the computing device is configured for being browsed via the mobile device.

18

18. The mobile device of claim 15 where a size of the file was scaled by the computing device prior the information from the file being provided to the display device.

19

19. The mobile device of claim 15 where a quality of the file was scaled by the computing device prior to the information from the file being provided to the display device.

20

20. The mobile device of claim 15 , the actions further comprising presenting, by the display device under control of the mobile device, an annotation of the file.
